Fri, 18 Nov 2011 00:20:02 +0100 (Reuters) - George Wright (C) talks with his wife Maria Rosario Valente and his son Marco after a news conference at his lawyers' office in Lisbon November 17, 2011. The Portuguese judiciary on Thursday denied the extradition warrant for Wright requested by the U.S. Wright, 68, is a convicted U.S.-born murderer and alleged hijacker arrested in Portugal in September after 41 years on the run. Wright was convicted in 1963 for the murder of gas station owner Walter Patterson during an armed robbery in Wall, New Jersey. While serving his 15 to 30-year sentence, he escaped from a New Jersey prison in 1970. The FBI linked him to the commandeering, along with four other hijackers with children in tow, of a passenger plane from Detroit that was forced to land in Algeria in 1972.
